Hey guys, i have a GTX 750TI OC 2gb with 2 fans.. i playing GTA V, and sometimes i am seeing lag.. i know i dont have much ram, or the lag maybe caused from the internet connection, but the internet defently is not the problem for me ! the problem is i dont know how much mhz i must chose how much fan speed etc .. Also want you to tell me if my system can handle a OC or It could burn the hardware or whatever ;p THANK YOU !!also i must say that i am using the msi afterburner+ on the cpu/gpu i recently applied a thermalpaste !

my specs

windows 8 64bit
h110m-hdv
i5 6500 3.2ghz
4gb ram 2133mhz ddr4 hyperx
3 fans on the back side, down side, and on the window,
a aftermarket cpu fan arctic freezer 7 pro rev 2 ( i know maybe it doesnt matter)
Corsair VS Series VS450
ssd 250gb evo 850 if i remember correctly
500gb 7200 rpm hdd
a monitor L222WS, which is not even HD ;P

hey, as i said i know that the ram is dont enough . but are you sure that the problem is the dont much ram of my system? because i dont have enough money to spend on ram , especially if i dont see any difference. so if someone can make sure that the problem is the ram, then ok. after that, do you think its good idea to oc the gpu or not ?
 


I am absolutely sure it's the RAM, you can try a bit overclocking and see if there's a difference.
You can find another 4 gig for pretty cheap.

Single 8gb ram modules aren't that rare:

i know dude, but ok lets say that are not that rare, so what?whats the problem? either i sell mobo and buy another either sell my one stick ram 4gb and buy a 8gb ram ..

 


I'm not sure which site you trust, so you'll have to look for yourself.
Your motherboard supports upto 2133 mhz so remember that.

its ok i will find alone, no problem ! you mean the mobo can handle 2400 mhz rams? and 2666mhz?
 


Your motherboard supports only upto 2133 mhz.
However you can run higher speeds, I mean not massively higher but the ones you mentioned will be fine.
But you'll need to do a little thing. The motherboard you have includes the BIOS feature "XMP" which stands for Extreme Memory Profile, this will allow you to run higher clocked RAM than supported without trouble. All you're going to need to do is go into your BIOS settings and look for XMP or Active XMP and enable it.
And don't worry I've looked it up and your motherboard has this feature.

so its better to buy a 2666mhz of ram than the 2133mhz right? and i have to enable this XMP. ok

its ok i will find the answer, can you explain on more thing? on the supported rams on the asrock website, for my mobo, says only for 2133 and 2444 mhz of rams .. so how i do know that the for example a higher mhz of ram will work perfect?
